One of my motherboard has two SPDIF sockets. One input and one output. Under windows these work fine and I am able to achieve what I'm trying here.



I want to set Ubuntu up so it will play the Digital input out the Analogue output(normal headphone jack).



Under my input devices there is no digital options, and under configuration there is no option for Digital Stereo input



I only have options for Digital output and Analogue input, when really I want it the other way around.



Can anyone shed any light?

Pulseaudio can't enable/disable the S/PDIF ports, this has to be done from ALSA.

Install gnome-alsamixer and there you will see the specific options to enable and disable SP/DIF (or IEC 925 as they call it)

  • It seems then that your driver is not recognizing the S/PDIF port. Try to find out what specific audiochipset you have and in what configuration. Visit [ alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Matrix:Main ]
